Better players seeking a blade-esque profile were left out when Callaway released its latest Apex Ai line-up. The introduction of Ai150 ticks all the boxes for golfers on the lower end of the handicap spectrum.
Titleist launches its most extensive T-Series iron line to date with the next generation T100 and T150 designed for better players, an all-new T250 that includes a weaker-lofted “launch spec” model and a more player-friendly reimagined T350.
Made from a single piece of 1020 carbon steel, the standard X Forged boasts a compact profile for the more accomplished player. The higher toe and hard edges are in line with other Japanese forged irons.
There’s a number buried in your typical launch monitor report you should be paying attention to because it might be the difference between hitting greens instead of just visiting them.
The fifth generation of TaylorMade’s players-distance P·790 irons boast a new steel alloy for the face that is 20 percent stronger than in the previous iteration. This allows for a fast, thin face that delivers more rebound at impact.
The relationship between a player and a new set of irons can be lukewarm at first. Same for pulling your clubs out of the garage for the first time in months. They might not feel quite right at the start.
Ping introduces two new irons, the G730 and i530, designed for distance but geared towards different player types. The G730 is more of a game-improvement offering while the i530 serves better players seeking to regain some lost distance.
These two key terms have probably popped up somewhere along your golf journey. Understand them both, and you’ll better understand how your equipment can help your game.
